He was credited with the win in Game 7 of the 1924 World Series when he came into the game in the 9th inning and pitched four scoreless innings as the Senators would beat John McGraw’s New York Giants

A thread 🧵

With Max Scherzer knocking Walter Johnson out of the top 10 in all time strikeouts here are some facts on the person they called “The Big Train”:

[Paul McCoy @PaulMcCoy97]

Won two AL MVP’s (1914 and 1924)

Played his entire 21 year career with the Washington Senators despite them being the laughingstock of the American League for years

Appeared in the World Series twice. Winning the 1924 World Series

“I (Dan Wilson) just didn’t agree with the assessment that Emil (Jimenez) had.”

Seattle Mariners manager Dan Wilson discusses Julio Rodriguez’s failed ABS challenge that led to Wilson being ejected.

@StacyRost I’m right there with you. Manny went from zero to 100 real quick.

[Paul McCoy @PaulMcCoy97]

@Joe_Fann The only way would be if you are out of challenges or you wait too long. Clearly Julio did not wait too long. The Mariners broadcast also showed a slo mo version where Jimenez is clearly looking at Julio. Really no excuse here.

[Paul McCoy @PaulMcCoy97]

@DannySalonen @Jomboy_ I second this @JomboyMedia. I want to know what Jimenez said to get Manny Acta going.

[Paul McCoy @PaulMcCoy97]

Home plate umpire Emil Jimenez did not grant Julio Rodriguez his ABS challenge and threw out Mariners manager Dan Wilson.

Next half inning Jimenez doesn’t grant Jonathan Aranda his ABS challenge until third base ump Doug Eddings steps in.

Mariners fans have not stopped booing.

[Paul McCoy @PaulMcCoy97]

JOSH NAYLOR DESTROYS THIS BASEBALL DEEP INTO THE SEATTLE NIGHT!!!

He is 3-3 with 2 HR, a double, and a sweet batflip 🔥🔥

Update on home plate umpire Emil Jimenez: He is still being booed.

@J2H_Y_SWAY Luke Raley was right there with you.

[Paul McCoy @PaulMcCoy97]

The Diamondbacks vs. Dodgers has turned into a really underrated rivalry.

Every game seems like a playoff game. Both teams make each other grind out games and earn wins.

Awesome baseball so far this series.

#Dbacks #Dodgers

[Paul McCoy @PaulMcCoy97]

The Dodgers finally break through and snap their seven game losing streak.

Six relievers combined for 4.1 Inning pitched.

On the other hand Edwin Diaz has now blown two straight saves and has a 10.80 ERA.

#Dodgers

[Paul McCoy @PaulMcCoy97]

BACK-TO-BACK TRIPLES FOR THE DIAMONDBACKS TO TIE THE GAME IN THE 9TH!!!!

Edwin Diaz has blown his second straight save for the Dodgers.

#DBacks

[Paul McCoy @PaulMcCoy97]

Eugenio Suarez game tying 2-run homer!!

105.4 MPH off the bat 🚀

The Nationals bullpen strikes again.

#Natitude #ATOBTTR

[Paul McCoy @PaulMcCoy97]

Bryce Harper and Trea Turner go back-to-back to tie it up!!

Harper now sits at 388 career homers.

#RingTheBell

[Paul McCoy @PaulMcCoy97]

Max Scherzer is now 10th all-time for most career strikeouts!!

He moves past the great Walter Johnson.

We are at a point where it will probably be a very long time until we see another pitcher reach the top 10 on the career strikeouts list.
